Building Product Isn’t What It Used to Be

Not long ago, “building product” meant sitting inside a product team.
PMs wrote specs. Designers shipped screens. Engineers pushed code. Everyone else consumed the output.

That world is gone.

Today, everyone can build product. Tools are faster, communities are open, and the barrier between “idea” and “something real” has never been thinner.

You don’t need a product title to be a builder. Teachers, writers, indie hackers, founders, lawyers - if you’ve got curiosity, you can create value.

Learning to build in this new world isn’t a solo journey. The fastest way to grow is to learn from each other: sharing experiments, comparing notes, remixing ideas, and building momentum together.
